ODBC Call Failed with stored procedure - Pass through query

问题

I have created a pass through query and trying to call a stored procedure from it.

I am able to execute the queries on sql server database sucessfully but when it comes to stored procedures, i am getting an error as :

"ODBC call Failed"

The problem is with stored procedures only. The queries are executing fine .

Here , is my code :

Dim qdf As DAO.QueryDef, rst As ADODB.Recordset
Dim DatabaseName As String
Dim Server As String
ServerName = "XXXX"
DatabaseName = "XXX"
Set qdf = CurrentDb.CreateQueryDef("")
 strConnectionString = "ODBC;DRIVER={sql server};" & _
        "DATABASE=" & DatabaseName & ";" & _
        "SERVER=" & ServerName & ";" & _
        "Trusted_Connection=YES;"
qdf.Connect = strConnectionString
qdf.SQL = " EXEC [dbo].[SAMPLE_TEST]"
qdf.ReturnsRecords = True
Set rst = qdf.OpenRecordset
Debug.Print rst!RecordCount
rst.Close
Set rst = Nothing

Please let me know if i am missing any thing ?

To get more information about the cause of an "ODBC--call failed." error we can loop through the DBEngine.Errors collection and see if there are other messages that might be a bit more descriptive. For example, with the code

    qdf.Connect = strConnectionString
    qdf.SQL = " EXEC [dbo].[SAMPLE_TEST]"
    qdf.ReturnsRecords = True
    On Error GoTo oops
    Set rst = qdf.OpenRecordset
    Debug.Print rst!RecordCount
    rst.Close
    Set rst = Nothing
    Exit Sub
oops:
    Dim dbeError As Error
    For Each dbeError In DBEngine.Errors
        Debug.Print "(" & dbeError.Number & "): " & dbeError.Description
    Next
End Sub

we might see the following in the VBA Immediate window:

(229): [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]The EXECUTE permission was denied on the object 'SAMPLE_TEST', database 'myDb', schema 'dbo'.
(3146): ODBC--call failed.
